Some of my questions might appear patently stupid to those well-versed in Orthodoxy, but I'm brand new, having no background in the faith. Please grant me a great deal of patience and consideration as I learn the basics.

Thanks. I accidentally combined two urls, and for whatever reason, it's not giving me the option to 'modify' the post. Maybe because it was moved and no longer remembers that I'm the one that posted it. lol.
